“Leila was a lifesaver being able to care for our dog on short notice. Did a wonderful job giving me peace of mind while we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to ask for her assistance again.”

About: I've lived with cats and worked with dogs my whole life. From bathing my grandma's dog to walking pit bulls at the shelter, animals have always been a part of my life. Over the summer I'm looking for work wherever I can take it but mostly open. In the school year I am usually never gone more than 3 hours. I live in a pet friendly basement apartment with air conditioning. There is space for a kennel and other supplies if needed. It's not gigantic is very clean and the complex has a bark park.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs almost my whole life! My family has had dogs for as long as I can remember and I’ve always had a passion for working with them and getting to know all their different personalities. I believe fur babies deserve the absolute best care as they are what make our lives so much better! I have a soft spot for the elderly kiddos and have been working in veterinary medicine the past 4 years :) I’m currently working full time during days from 7:30-5 pm but am available around that schedule. I would love to add some daily walks to my routine or some dog sitting time! I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly 8 year old St. Bernard/ Australian Shepherd mix if you need your dog out of the house for a few hours or a kit I have put together before every visit including some grooming brushes, treats, and any doggy bags that will be needed if I make the visit to you!

“Adriana definitely eased our minds while we were away on vacation! Not only did Adriana care for our family 😻 pet we all love very much, but she also “looked after” the outdoor neighborhood “pets” that sometimes eat & stay in the makeshift “house” built to help them stay as warm as possible during these winter months!! She also went above & beyond doing some light housework inside & outside!”

About: I have worked in an animal shelter for two years, caring for animals of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes animal handling, fostering, neonatal and kitten care, behavior observation, and general animal care. Through my shelter and fostering work, I have gained knowledge of common animal health concerns, medication administration, and monitoring pets for signs of illness or discomfort. I am passionate about providing safe, compassionate, and attentive care to help every pet feel comfortable and loved while their families are away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting on most weekdays and weekends. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pets receive the attention and care they deserve! Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs through both fostering and animal shelter work. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise routines, and any special requests. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!

Bethany was incredible! She took great care of our animals on their first time being home alone for a few days. She would always send a message about the animals and then take pictures each time, we felt so reassured our animals were in good hands!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Cedar Falls

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Cedar Falls is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 22 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Cedar Falls. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cedar Falls. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 78% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
